Bose goes fashionable with Frames sunglass/headphone combo

NEWS – Bose, a longtime provider of top-quality audio equipment, is expanding their line to include fashionable sunglasses, with a twist.  Bose Frames are sunglasses, personal wireless headphones, Bluetooth phone headset, a gateway to Siri and Google Assistant and what Bose calls, “Bose audio augmented reality platform”.

Frames do not alter your view, but rather augments via audio information.  Pairing with Android and IOS devices via the Bose Connect app, Frames leverage nine-axis head motion sensors and the GPS from your connected device to know both where you are and what you are facing.  This will allow for extensive audio augmentation for travel, gaming, and other applications.

Weighing in at just 45 grams, Frames fall into the typical range of 25-50 grams for quality sunglasses.  They are scratch and shatter resistant and block 99% of UVA/UVB rays.  Bose claims battery life up to 3.5 hours during playback and up to 12 hours on standby. This is in line with other wireless headsets. Augmented reality features will be made available through the Bose Connect app as they are developed. They are available in two styles, Rondo on the female model and Alto on the male model. Both versions are only available in matte black finish.

Bose has created a pretty interesting combo with Frames.  Having one item to put in your EDC kit that gives you sunglasses, wireless headphones, Bluetooth phone connection, access to voice assistants and the promise of audio AR is pretty intriguing.  Frames are available today directly from Bose for $199.99

The Feelworld Master Series MA5 is a feature packed on-camera monitor

NEWS – When I am not out and about taking pictures either as a professional photographer or for my own pleasure, my other business is as a videographer. Both of these jobs require gear that is viewed as mandatory and gear that is driven by personal desire. Video gear is as expensive as photography gear and in most cases even more expensive. When shooting video, there are many accessories that help to improve the experience and the ability to do a great job. One accessory that I own and have multiple variations of is an on-camera monitor. This is a great tool that allows you to properly see what you are recording, and depending on its capabilities, it also allows you to assess the quality of the footage as you shoot. Good feature-packed on-camera monitors can be quite expensive ranging from several hundred dollars to thousands of dollars.

Recently someone recommended to me the Feelworld Master Series MA5 monitor. This monitor in a 5 inch LED on-camera monitor with a resolution of 1920 x 1080. It is capable of both 4:3 and 16:9 screen format, and it has an HDMI input and output as well as an audio out. The HDMI supports resolutions from 480i all the way through 4k 4096x2160p and has a left/right viewing angle of 80 degrees from each side. It comes with hardware mounting options, cables, a sunshade, and a case as a part of the package.

If you would like to read more about this monitor go to the Momanplay website. It sells for the relatively inexpensive price of $169 on Amazon.
